                                                                                 FLIRT.COM CHALLENGE 002

                                          WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS

As a twenty-something (prosperous or not), the future can seem daunting. Whether you’re 21 and a brand new member to the society or teetering on your thirties and hanging on to the illusion of youth before society all but shuts you down, the next steps in life are never anything more than vague ideas and goals that will often get thrown for a loop and tossed out the window.  This weeks challenge will run along the same vein of the first challenge; the topic, however, has changed: whether it’s sexual, personal, career oriented or romantic, what does the future hold for your character? Where do they want to go, where do they see themselves in the next five, ten, fifteen years? Dive in deep!

                                                         EXPECTATIONS

ALL players must partake in this challenge.

Any sort of content is allowed for this challenge; whether a moodboard, aesthetic, mix tape, writing of some kind (journal entry, self para), etc. Go crazy!

You can make more than one post if preferred - the more you create, after all, the more development for both your character and those around you!

Tag all posts #flirtcontent so that the whole group can see them!

There is no specific time limit on this challenge; as your characters needs are ever evolving and we add new players into the game, we strongly suggest you come back to this simple challenge.

For potential applicants or new members, including this on your page will help give us insight on your new character joining our game! 

That being said, current members are encouraged to participate in the next week; aka, by November 6th.

Further questions are always welcome, either through the ask box or through tumblr IM!

As always, we look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with!

Welcome to Challenge 002!

Challenges are pretty straight-forward. You do the Challenge, you get a point. You don’t do it, you don’t get a point. There’s no grading, this is purely participation based. When you get a point, the point goes into the Point page, conveniently located at /points haha.

This second Challenge is meant to be lighthearted and fun, so we’re going with an Ask Meme. This does count as activity. For this Challenge, though, you must participate between 10.14.16 and 10.16.16—after Sunday, we ask that you not do any more Asks. To play, just reblog this post which lets folks know to ask you, and make sure your /ask is anon enabled! 

Tag your first reply with both #chvrchesrp and #chvrchpoint so we can be sure to tally you! For every Ask you get, send one out to keep the good times rolling. Without further ado, Challenge 002: Tarot Ask Meme—

ghost development challenge: day five, ephemeral

it's everything to him, this war. evan breaths for the fires he starts, lives for the dark mark that itches away at the soul he forgot he had, dies for a man who was more monster than he. but she's a parasite that eats away at everything he loves, and he's a poison so desperate for whatever hell is inside of her. they hate each other as much as they love their cause, and he pretends it's pure, as pure as his blood, as pure as his morals, but there's a motel room that proves otherwise with sheets stained with possibilities and regret and something that burns more than love. so he runs and fights and screams until one day, all that's left is the dried out husk of a pureblooded monster with nothing but a smirk and a dark mark that once meant everything to him and a girl somewhere out there that would've meant everything to him in another life.

- Stop right there! - Exige Emma.

A moça parada defronte a Emma não recua perante a mira da arma, apenas estende as mãos ao lado em reação ao afrontamento da loira. A testa de Emma franze de leve ao absorver as características da pessoa parada a sua frente: Pele morena caramelizada, cabelos longos e negros ornamentados com pequenas tranças e penas de aves espalhadas por todo seu comprimento. Olhos castanhos e intensos a encaram de volta, acentuados por uma faixa de tinta ocre que atravessa horizontalmente seu rosto bem na altura do olhar.

- Please do not hurt him. - Pede a morena. - Meeko means no harm.

The Short-Story Challenge ↳ The Sun Is Rising

“Even when you're drowning in your doubt  just look beyond the clouds, the sun is rising...”

[kxylacarpenter-blog]

                                      “What has dare taught you?”

This is a question I have often pondered when I think of roleplaying as a whole. Dare has been the most important RP I’ve ever been part of. It has taught me family, though most of you are miles and miles away. It has taught me curiosity and patience in the strangest of ways. It has taught me that if I want something I should go for it. It has taught me that people are more understanding than you’d think. But if Dare itself has taught me all of this, what have the characters themselves taught me?

Samuel Fawkes. @samfawkes​

First and foremost is Sam. I have a strong love for every character in this roleplay, but Sam has always held a special spot in my heart. When Ci wrote his bio and posted it the first go of the RP, I was worried no one would take him up. He was a character I was dying to see, and I was thrilled when an app came in and Jensen took over. That being said, I have loved Sam ever since. Maybe it’s due to his friendship with Kayla and that has formed some bias, but no one can ever tell me that he’s not a wonderful character. He remains lighthearted through even the toughest of times, and I believe that’s what draws me to him most. How can you not take to someone who makes you feel better when things get tough? It’s funny, because if Sam were someone I encountered in real life, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to stand being around him for extended periods of time. But watching his development has been amazing, something I wouldn’t be able to do in a real life situation. He’s grown incredibly, and Jensen, you have done wonders with a character that I pictured to be completely different. Sam has taught me happiness and courage. Those two things don’t always go hand in hand, but somehow Sam makes them fit like no one else ever could.

Daisy French. @thefrenchflower​

Daisy’s bio came out a short time after I wrote Kayla’s, and just like Sam, I remember being thrilled the first time an app came in for her. I thought it would be easy to play her and Kayla’s relationship, but then Diana came and took her over and Daisy intimidated even me. That was when I realized that Diana played her perfectly. Daisy is the epitome of an empowered female. She’s got all this emotion inside, but such a hard shell, and I realized how much I wish I could be as strong as her. She’s just relatable, and that’s so hard to play in a character like Daisy when she’s so closed off as well. I empathize with her. She makes me happy and angry and sad and everything that a good character should make you feel. Yet as much as I wish I could be like her sometimes and just learn to shut it all out, she’s made me come to the realization that it’s okay to be open. It’s okay to do whatever you need to do to cope on your own. Daisy proves that there are so many different ways to be strong, you just have to pick which works best for you. There is no right or wrong way.

Challenge 002: We Are Family

Family is important part of a teenagers life. Now that we have talked a little bit of who the character is I would like to see what exactly made them into what they are now. This challenges aren't required, but it's always fun to learn more about your character! For this challenge you will post a family tree with ages and occupations if applicable, then answer a few questions. When you are done tag is t3 challenge so I can keep track of them all. 

How do you get along with their parents?

How do you get along with your sibling(s)?

Describe your family life/dynamic, growing up.

Describe your family life/dynamic now.

Who's your favorite parent and why?

Challenge 003: Interior of a Maverick

Are you afraid of death? If so, what most terrifies you about it? If not, then why?

I think that everyone is a little afraid of death. It's only natural as human beings. Even people who have considered taking their own life are afraid of death I think. How can we not be? It's completely unknown to us what actually happens when you die. Death is a scary thing. I challenge anyone to tell me otherwise. If it wasn't scary they probably wouldn't make as many horror movies. 

Have you ever thought about taking your own life?

I really wish I could say I never have. I can say I never thought about it seriously, but I have thought about it. What happened to me was very traumatic and after I thought that maybe the only way to get rid of the pain to die. I realized though that I couldn't go through with it. I'm still trying to figure out why that is. 

Do you consider it okay to cry? When was the last time you did?

Of course it's okay to cry. I don't know anyone who thinks it isn't. It's something that everyone does at one point or another. I haven't cried in a long time, but not because I think it's wrong or something. I don't cry because my tears refuse to fall. I'm alright with it though because I never really enjoyed it. 

What is your religious view of things? What, if any religion, do you call your own?

I don't have a religion. I believe that people should be good to each other and be the best versions of themselves. Other then that I don't really see the point in following a religion myself. 

What’s one act of your past that you’re ashamed of? What’s one act that you’re proud of?

Letting him hurt me the way he did. I could have stopped him if I hadn't been a coward. I could have done something rather then just let it happen. The clothing I wore could have been a little less revealing. I could have done so much. I am proud of getting my family and I back to Bennington though. I think it'll be good for me and my brother. River doesn't seem to think so, but I'm fairly certain that he just lives to do the opposite of anything I say. 

Would you ever have the capability to murder another human being?

I don't think so. I feel bad for killing bugs to be honest. The only way I would murder someone if my life was on the line. I would be extremely guilty about it though. I don't know how I would deal to be honest. 

If your house was burning down and you could only save one family member, which one would it be and why?

I hate to say this but it would be River. I love my Parents, I do, but their minds are warped. They don't seem to see the world for what it actually is and they taught their children to do the same. Plus I simply couldn't live without my twin. He's kind of my rock and I love him. We shared a womb and that's a big deal. He's definitely more then my brother. 

Out of your friendship group, which person really gets under your skin and why?

I think it's a tie between Paige and Blaise. Blaise doesn't seem to know how to be nice. He thinks that his good looks entitle him to just do whatever he wants. He doesn't seem to care about peoples feelings. I hate that I'm attracted to him at all, but I guess I really can't choose who I'm attracted to. I'll just try and ignore him I guess. Paige I dislike because she's rude and such a bad influence. She doesn't even try to stay out of trouble. I don't like River hanging out with her. 

Out of your family, which person really gets under your skin and why?

Both my parents get under my skin. So does River sometimes. I know it asked for one person but I can't pick. Actually yes I can, it's my parents. They mean well but their views are so warped. Luckily though they are both very naive so they haven't picked up on anything strange with me. I think River has but luckily he hasn't brought it up. 

If you knew you were going to die tomorrow, how would you spend your last twenty four hours?

I would spend time with my friends. We would just let go and do any crazy thing we pleased. If I was gonna die anyway it really wouldn't matter. I would probably go skydiving, or in a hot balloon. Maybe I would go dancing even? Basically I would just live and not worry about anything. When I think about it I should live every day as if I would die in 24 hours. 

What’s one trait you loathe about yourself?

I sometimes think people think I'm uptight. Maybe I am a little. I just worry I guess. I don't want anything to happen to my brother and maybe I take that too far. 

If you knew Cody was going to do what he did, what would you say to try and stop him from jumping?

Cody you don't have to do this. I know that you're in a lot of pain, but we can take this on together. Take my hand and I promise you we will get through this. I'm in a lot of pain as well Cody. Someone did something to be that I didn't want them to do and the weight in my chest is almost to much to bare. Suicide is never the answer. It's giving up and I know you don't give up Cody. Don't give up now. I can't promise that everything will be alright now, but if you work at it I believe it will be. Don't hurt your friends like you've been hurt. Maybe right now living is the hardest thing you'll ever do, but you have so much left to experience. No one is beyond help even if they think they are. I know it's scary, but I'll be right by your side, so will everyone else. Please just don't make a mistake that you can't take back. Come on down and we can cry until no tears are left and eat massive amounts of food. I love you okay? We can get through this.
